Threads of Care: jobs for women and young mothers
The tailoring project employs widows, older women and members living with HIV, and in March sewed abayas for members in need.
Threads of Care aims to empower women and young mothers. It employs MASYAP women and youth members, including widows, older women and members who are infected with or affected by HIV.
The project promotes self-reliance and eases financial pressure, so that the women and young mothers can support their families and pay school fees for their children.
What the tailors make
- School uniforms for children in school
- Abayas for Muslim women and girls
- Reusable sanitary pads for schoolgirls
In March 2023 the tailors worked hard to sew abayas for MASYAP women and youth members in need.
